Kuh sings about love that lasts

MANILA, Philippines - This Valentine’s, Kuh will once again play cupid to both lovers and music lovers via Forever Love. To be held on Feb. 12 and 14 at Captain’s Bar inside Mandarin Hotel, the concert’s repertoire includes her own hits, songs by new artists and upbeat tunes that all impart the message of staying in love with the right person.

“Everyone is looking for a forever love,” said Kuh. “And once you find The One, you and your partner must work on strengthening the relationship to make it last. Love requires a lot of building, nurturing… a lot of give and take, but more on the sharing part because love should be unconditional.”

In between songs, Kuh will give the audience tips on how to keep love evergreen. Kuh joked: “Well, if your loved one brings you to my concert, then it’s a pretty good gauge of how serious that person is with you. After all, there’s only one Valentine’s Day in a year and since it’s very special, the person you’re with on that day has got to be The One for you.”

On both nights, Kuh will have a date with not one, but two men: Christopher de Leon and Jomari Yllana.

“I once sang a duet with Christopher in one of my shows in the US. Because he’s such a good actor, people tend to overlook the fact that he can sing, too. He, in fact, released an album of movie theme songs some years back,” said Kuh.

She discovered that Jomari can well carry a tune, too, when they performed together on GMA 7’s Celebrity Duets, where Jomari was a finalist.

Forever Love is presented by Music Museum and Mandarin Oriental Manila. For details, call 721-0635 or 721-6726.
